This man could narrate paint drying and I'd still lap that shit up.
Bro you shouldn't eat paint, most is toxic D:
@@strawberrydingdong4097 Well, if it's dried...
@@operator8014 Then the real question Is are dried things "lappable"
@@halfknight6706 Yes, but you have to apply a lot of pressure.

‘It’s so good to be a normal human being.”
-a man in the zombie apocalypse, whilst pulling things out of cupboards and dumping them on the floor
In a blood-soaked bathroom.
There's weirdo's in all apocalypse stories. Dudes that just snapped and do sadistic shit, guys that it as complete freedom and go full anarchy raider, guys that just shut down and sit to wait and die. Then there's this psycho, breaking into houses and messing up the place for no reason while also judging the home decor of people that are likely dead
@@homfri111 They deserved it for having an avocado bathroom. Their taste in home decor caused the apocalypse.
Shush, he’s Konmari-ing
Just apocalypse things. No biggie
AA: we spawned on top of an outhouse
Me: somebody once told me the world was gonna roll me
I ain’t the sharpest zombie in the the shitter.
When he kept apologizing for “doing the sims” all I could think of is “forgive me father for I have simed”.
I'm all about that simmer life
Hate the Sim, not the Simmer
So if AA was a girl we would all be SIMps right
@@SovietRussia777 Hows your basement? How many "guests" do you have there usually?
It's not okay ChuggleDBugl, we're supposed to be training for the big game and you're not at practice! How are we supposed to win if our star player is sitting here deleting ladders from swimming pools when he should be out back shooting hoops. You've disappointed the team, and you've disappointed me.
What I love to collect in Zomboid is fresh food. Put my sandbox on Initial Infection, bump up spawns of fresh food and loot the stores. Once at base organize it all and revel in the satisfaction of having so much food.
There is something satisfying about having access to all of the food stuffs that quickly start to rot, and then will never be replenished once they're gone. I always found there to be something very depressing about looting shops after the power's gone out and just finding all of the rotten pizza, steak and hotdogs. They never had chance to experience the joys of being consumed by a human mouth, and that just breaks my heart, it really does.

I imagine the story on how you would "spawn" on an outhouse in the middle of nowhere. You get shitfaced drunk with friends at some party and the next morning you wake up with a bad hangover on top of a outhouse and it's the end of the world and everyone is a zombie 😂
That's known as 'Sunday' where I live.
@@handlesarefeckinstupid Maybe next sunday you can wake up on top of me
That actually sounds like a good opening for a zombie movie

Also AA: This carpet is awful, this drawer doesn't belong, this roof is distasteful.
Omg I am in love with your icon, which bara artist drew it? Bakemonoy?

@@felesnocis thanks haha it blew up way more than I expected
I love how in the intro he opens and immediately shuts the door, just it's a meme
Opens the door.
Zombie.
Closes the door.
That is exactly how I would react IRL.

He just wanted to talk about your extended warranty
I would probably apologize like “oh, sorry, I didn’t realize it was occupied.”
No kidding
Yea, no. I ain’t dealing with that. XD

I thought it said “canned sadness”
And I didn’t even question it.
A popular competitor of "Bottled Melancholy"
I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets huge Sims vibes from this game.
The creators should make a sims game with these assets, call it "Project Simboid"
I'd play that
I feel like I'm barely able to comprehend how fucking hard EA would come down on that lol. Irrecoverable, intergenerational financial ruin for every bloodline that has ever been connected to Indiestone in any way ; - ;
Sims with more exploring driving around town
no longer stuck in one house
Would be fun

Erasers can be used to erase notations on maps.
Pillows are used to craft mattresses.
Utensils in your inventory (fork or spoon) will be used to eat out of cans and bowls, etc.
All pens and pencils can be used to draw comics and write books. A weird mechanic as you don't gain fun in doing the action, only in reading the finished product.
Cigarettes can be used to get rid of flies, but you have to read a farming magazine for the recipe.
If you have the recycle everything mod, you can rip dish towels and towels into ripped sheets.
If you want to set traps for zombies, the timer is used in a few gadget recipes.
EVERY TIME YOU DON'T HIT THE LOOT ALL OPTION AT THE TOP OF A CONTAINER THAT YOU TAKE ALL THE ITEMS FROM ANYWAY, I GROW AN EXTRA HEAD.
honestly surprised you didn't say that you could dry off with towels. Being wet while it is cold af out is a death sentence
I love how you get a sledgehammer and than just have a home decor crisis
opens door
jumpscare sound plays, 1 zombie is inside like "hey. :)"

I for one, would absolutely love an old sims play through, like a one off stream or something
Sims 1 is so charming and that's one of the reasons why I like PZ a lot. I just love the style haha
Agreed. Sure, 4 is advanced, 3 has ideas, 2 had stuff you don't even see now, but 1 was just special. The SIM-plicity (had to) was charming, the magic and holidays and Hollywood!
I really gotta see if I can boot my old discs... Major nostalgia right now.
Ewww no.
@@l4unchp4dgaming38 I 10million percent agree with you
Some people like cupcakes better. I, for one, care less for them.
Ok, the comic timing on that intro is amazing.
Timers can be used in place of alarm clocks to make 'crafted timers', which in turn can be used to upgrade bombs/noisemakers into their timed equivalent.
Honestly man thanks for uploading today i have a real hard time sleeping in general but listening to you play zomboid your enjoyment plus the general relaxing sound of your speech is great for that i hope its no insulting or anything your content is far from boring i dont want to give that impression.
No dude I sleep to aa as well, it works magic
I knew I wasn't the only one. That beautiful poetic voice lulls me to dream land.
You should check out grillmastah too
We shall do as thou commands
Dude i relate to that, i sleep so well listening to his videos, it's relaxing
I thoroughly enjoy listening to this dude talk he's got the NPR tone but 10/10 feel more calm while this poor lad is stressing
I know I’m late, but holy shit living in a shithole really makes the average apartment feel like luxury. I’m happy I experienced the shitty before my current apartment. I’m not a rich man, but now that I live in a nice apartment with someone I love, I really don’t take a moment for granted. Amazing how this video brought this out of me.
Currently going through this irl. Slowly getting closer and closer to homelessness, which would be rock bottom for me. It sucks living a life where having clean clothes once in awhile feels like a luxury.
@@HayleeFox15hey it’s been 3 months since you posted this comment but I wanted to say I hope you’re doing okay, sometimes it’s hard to keep your head above water. Good luck and I hope you flourish in the end.
@@Victoria-ii1df HI beautiful lady, I am currently moved back in with my parents, (which is hell but better than the alternatives) and am in the process of leaving/dumping my abusive boyfriend. He was the man of my dreams and after living together for almost 2 years he completely ruined me financially and gave me a lot of trauma. I took a break from my job to get therapy and whatnot, and once I'm working again, I'll be working on paying off all my debt & saving up for my own place again. Everything sucks as a whole but I know it's good for me overall to make the decision to leave him and start fresh. All I can think about is 2 years ago I was thriving and doing the best I ever have been!! And now currently doing the worst I ever have been LOL. (even though I'm horribly depressed, i have a good sense of humor!!) Sorry for all the venting, i literally have nobody and my family isn't emotionally supportive like that. It meant the world to me that you just wanted to check and see if I was doing ok. I hope your life is going amazingly for you babe❤️💜💖💕💞❤️❤️💖💜❤️💕💞
@@HayleeFox15 you got this!! We’re proud of you regardless. You’re still here, that’s what matters. 💞
I'd imagine it's less about the love devs have for their creation and more about not having the same creative freedom. Especially with the corporate guys that care more about their bottom line and selling as much as possible, which on average end up with a need to catch the interest of the masses, rather than having a vision and setting out to create it, without worrying about the masses wanting it. If they were doing that back then, games like doom and postal might not have existed.
agreed, most aaa games these days obviously WANT to be something amazing but the devs either get treated badly, can't have their creative freedoms, or have terrible deadlines (usually those christmas sales). notable examples being fnaf security breach, fallout 76, sonic boom and just sm more its a real shame because looking at small details or concept art u can tell they really wanted to innovate and create an awesome experience then it comes out and its fr unplayable
@@velevetyyfliesmore and more people keep returning to older and older games, and I believe we've hit a point where the general attitude towards modern AAA games are so bad that any genuinely good ones are few and far between
@@deejornoI will stand by my belief that arcade racing peaked with burnout revenge in 2004, a game of its quality will never exist again due to monetization in the industry lol.
i rewatch a lot of these vods about project zomboid in the quiet of night when i need comfort. it is everything to focus on something other than myself right now. guess i just wanted to say thanks for making content.
I love playing PZ while listening AA playing PZ.
Makes me feel like we are playing together.
Hab ich auch versucht, aber seine Jumpscares machen mich fertig :D
Did you know that there is a "Delete All" button on trash cans so that you can destroy items.
Bro you saved me that’s amazing info
"Garbage Day!"
It does have to be enabled in settings as it’s off by default I believe
It's great to see how far AA has come since I subbed way back in his early days. One day I'll be able to catch a stream live when my schedule allows
The first minute was hilarious I mean the awkward silence after discovering the outhouse zombie
I like taking the smoking trait because it forces me to take risks, especially once I've got a base set up.
Many times I've died or been bitten because I left safety because either my cigarettes or lighter had run out XD
And my character leaned against my base having a smoke while looking across the city is a fun aesthetic. Huge vibes. Or clearing out a big horde and chilling for a second to have a smoke to calm down.
I like to take smoker bc I use nicotine irl
I like how it adds another "stat' into the game too. Always check the glove box for ciggies
Thats what going to the weed store felt like in 2020
I love the ten minute tangent about everything being a hammer. I'm partial to the open-ended, adjustable hammer, myself.
Hey AA, you can use utensils (forks and spoons) to eat food out of bowls. Your character does different animations when you eat if you have them.
Do you get any boost to happiness or anything?
Not as far as I know. You just don't stick your whole face in the bowl like an animal.
@@vexx80000 No they dont. According to the wiki.
That should really come with some sort of happiness boost.
@@Alizudo I'm pretty sure it just speeds up the action
ill tell you what, when you mentioned breaking glass is a good stress reliever, I can confirm because I work at a place where we pulverize glass and the sound of 2000 pound of glass slamming and shattering makes you really happy when it earth rumbling sound stops. Completely love you work and I'm so glad that I have a second monitor to listen and watch your vods on.
I've noticed you calmed my anxiety. I feel relaxed watching.
NOT HATING!
I would appreciate a condensed version of this as well. BTW your narration is is why I watch your videos.
he'll edit it out over the next days
Bruh that couldn't be interpreted as hating at all. That's like saying "I'm not racist but I really enjoy going to the movies"
@@GasGrassOrAssettoI mean, if you were going to see Birth of a nation maybe
Expanded Heli Events: Strange Edition and Deadly Fog and insane population and respawns to keep it interesting. Can be over run at any moment. But I like to have armored vehicles for that true nomad experience, permanent bases seem out of date to me, especially with the new Foraging overhaul coming. Storage caches are more my speed.
I'm beginning to find farming useless. Even with food settings on Rare, you find enough rice, pasta and flour to keep you going if you're using fishing and foraging. I guess farming has it's place if you don't like scavenging houses.
A nomad lifestyle sounds pretty good to me
Really you can play this game any number of ways and survive a pretty long time. Looting buildings, fishing, trapping, foraging, etc. And each supports a different play style, that being either supporting a permanent base or encouraging exploration and having a mobile base of operations. I think the most effective play style would be to loot any house you can find early-game, then establish a base and fortify it the best you can. When the base gets overrun from a number of reasons such as a helicopter event, you would have a car stocked with canned food and supplies. I’m not sure what you would do after escaping in a car, but you could either live life as a forager, gathering supplies from nearby towns and constantly siphoning gasoline, or you could settle in the woods and create a quaint cabin. Honestly just try something new
every time he brings up the sims i just keep wanting him to do a rags to riches challenge in the sims.
54:23 HOLL up, but you CAN take paintings off the wall! I literally scavenge neighborhoods for good paintings to put in base!
31:24 it's the difference between a hobbyist who loves the craft, and a corporate desk jockey. There is no comparing the two.
I enjoy your stream of consciousness commentary. You seem like you’d be a good friend to have.
If it helps when you listen to Adams Song next time, in the final chorus, the tense changes from past to present; the person struggling with a desire to die changes his mind. He decides to keep living.
Uplift at the end, my guy. :)
Also I love your playthroughs.
Someone has probably said this already. According to the wiki (and it's sometimes mentioned in the news in-game), Project Zomboid is set in 1993. DVDs were first released for general sale in 1997.
I've been hoping for more Cataclysm for ages!
It's definitely at least as fun to watch as this, as the sheer amount of variety and depth make it way more interesting. Besides, your narration is the reason I'm listening to this too in the first place. :)
Really hope he keeps on with this series, really enjoyed it. Also i think in terms of the base building he should actually build fences and barbed wire defences rather than just the frames.
I've definitely got my "money's worth" out of this game and then a lot more. I hope they get multiplayer going like everybody else. It's a great sandbox that can be tailored to your liking.
Ohh do I have some great news you most definitely know!
@@americantacos7618 Multiplayer RP no life time. :)
You should do some more story playthroughs. I like it when you narrate the life of one of your characters. You should make a 28 days later style game where everyone is a runner and you want to try and set up a little shelter out by a river in a secluded forest, away from any possible danger. Only you have to escape the city first. Who knows weather you make it out or die trying. It's the trials and tribulations on the way and self discovery in a harsh and inhospitable land that makes it fun. Keep up the good work
He's done that before in a previous video with a 28 days later mod
@@Seetj pretty sure I've seen it. Just think more would be cool. Just mentioned 28 days later because slow zombies would make it to easy. You want a struggle and actual fear lol
I will be soooo stoked the next time he does one of these, but they take so much effort compared to just playing so I respect his choice to wait until he feels like it to do one.
I recently made a character based on Steve1989. He's highly tolerable to food illness and can eat basically anything, but I also gave him the smoker quirk since he sometimes smokes ration cigs. You're right, man. It's rough. Not only do cigarettes become extremely rare towards the end-game, but also just finding a lighter/matches took me several in-game weeks. It's beyond me why I can't light one at a damn stove, but yeah, even if I could the eventual lack of tobacco makes the trait impossible to work with. --
Seems to me, with so many towns about, and most humans gone, a smoker's issue would be stale cigarettes. Between gas stations, liquor stores, grocery stores, and cigs in houses or on people /zoms, seems like a massive supply. I'd wonder if stale cigs have less nicotine, I'd also point out nicotine gum and patches.
Erasers can remove marks from maps written in pencil, dish towels are for drying yourself if wet and some rotten foods can be used in recipes after cooking lvl 7, but rotten cakes and pizzas and such are only good for compost. Also part of the placing of things, if you press r you can rotate stuff b4 placing.
Laughed so hard at the "couldnt you use a club hammer even if your not in a club?" Reminded me of the old Mitch Hedberg joke "I ordered the club sandwich the other day, and I'm not even a member."
If you read the top bar of a garbage container, you know, where it shows you the weight, you'll see a button that says "Delete All". It will remove all the items in the bin from the world
Without power for several hours? Fuck it! 90% phone charge and a 2+ hour AA vod!
These runs make me very happy.
I see that you love Project Zomboid.
So why dont you try "The long Dark". Your Hero to Zero Challenge with Gerald Williams was very popular.
This game should totally be your cup of tea.
agreed. i've been playing on and off for years and it has come a really long way. it's always been an immersive experience i think AA would enjoy
I love that game. Probably one of my favorite blast from the past games. So atmospheric and never ending. I'd love his commentary over that.
Just here to drop a like, will watch after work.
Ayeee that’s why I’m here😂😂
I am the same has you the diference is that im going to watch after school and work
Jokes on you I’m just gonna watch WHILE at work
@@pixelsNpints boss makes a dollar, you make a dime that’s why you watch ambiguous amphibian on company time
Damn. I just stumbled across this fine amphibian, and listening this sweet man musing about the game, life and nostalgia is about as endearing as Garrison Keillor’s ramblings about Lake Wobegon. It inspired me get the game, and it’s amazing. Love this. Never change. ❤
Honestly I think the living in crap houses thing comes from a sense of humility in which you want to not feel like your living how you could
I think you mean humility, or humbleness but I like that word all the same.
@@SineN0mine3 I believe you’re correct, thanks
"Let's get some water, like normal human beings. Ah, it's so good to be a normal human being... And let's also take this body outside"
1:05:46 I’d also say being outright idiots. Its like hey Neagan, instead of threatening those different survivor groups, offer to establish protected routes for them to facilitate trade, unite under the goal of retaking the area, and expand. Got plenty of fertile land to farm, craftsmen to make various goods and provide services, just go from there. Even acquiring a book or even better someone who knows how to make fuel would be beneficial if they grow corn. Even a brewer could do wonders for moral, even a basic moonshiner. If you build up a strong and profitable community, any new group you come across you can argue to them that attacking you would cost them the source of goods and luxuries they might miss from the old world, along with a possible ally.
Authoritarians don't care about things like that. It's about actually consolidating and controlling power and people. They will often let their people starve and die before fixing an obvious mistake or implementing much needed diplomacy. At least, historically that's the case. Never made sense to me. It's just dumb.
@@JimJamTheAdmin
The idea is that any luxuries can be made LATER.
Food can always be grown LATER, ensuring the people are alive and safe can come LATER, what needs to be done NOW is that "I am in control".
The problem with these authoritarians, is that "Later" never happens. They're never satisfied with what control they have, so they keep focusing on the "Now", until eventually everyone dies and NOW there will never be a "Later" ever again.
Speaking of self imposed rules: whenever I play burglar characters, to counteract being able to Hotwire cars from day one, I take ALL jewelry. Rings, necklaces, bracelets, money from cash registers, all of it. 💪😤
3rd time rewatching from the start.
Keep em' coming, dude! :)
I’ve been binging all ur videos on the main channel omg. BUT I CANT BELIEVE I HAVENT SEEN THIS CHANNEL, THIS IS WHAT I WAS LOOK FOR!!!
Hooray! Can’t wait to watch this. Thanks for the upload
these are some of the comfiest playthroughs. I love your commentary.
Love the content! Keep up the good work!
"... tools. The type of stuff you just walk in and grab, with your right hand, off the shelf."
I almost spit out my breakfast.
Man ur videos are so relaxing and fun, I love it 🙃
You just taught me the word pluviophile, and I'll be forever grateful. What a wonderful word.
I was holding a bowl of cereal when the outhouse zombie appeared and it got me real good
It still amazes me that this game is still being developed. I remember following the development of it when I started my old job around 2004/2005.
Just found this channel and all I have to say is you sound like what I can only describe as a personified embodiment of caramel velvet that midnights as a smooth jazz MC. Cheers, good sir & thanks for the videos.
Put items you don’t want anymore on a dead zombie. The items disappear when the zombie does. :)
Nice!
I got into PZ recently and I've been addicted. What a fantastic game. I know it won't help AA, now, but if you put items in trash containers, there is a "delete all" button on the top that does just that! I found that very helpful
The intro with the zombie in the outhouse and the long pause had me rolling!
i didnt think project zomboid would be that hard of a game…but then i bought it. i knew it wasnt gonna be easy when i was saving my last rifle round for myself just in case i needed to speed things up a little
Going to try to give this map a try for myself, but I also am probably going to move around furniture a lot. Double walls with crates between them to reinforce the fence, getting a farm up and running, attempting to build watch towers, etc.
Have been playing the map. Took over the same farm and converted the place into a three story bar, set up an irrigated farm out behind the garage, cleared the field, and have organized it. Also turned the former barn into a warehouse.
from “we have a way to just completely get rid of things!”
to “that didn’t work at all”
😂😂😂
Glad to see some more zomboid!
I hope someone has already told you, but you CAN cover up big glass windows and glass doors in your house. 1:16:41 you had "Add Sheet" option
Also love all your videos and hope I actually catch a stream sometime
Yeah saw that and saw him miss it lol maybe next time, eh
11:29 "How much blood are you cleaning with water?"
Sir, have you ever met a woman that has a heavy flow? Let me tell you, there's a lot a blood coming out of that woman, and if it gets to her pijamas and sheets she's going to have a lot of work getting it out with just water...
Amphibian, you are a national treasure, please keep doing what you like doing, cause we like watching these
Thanks for paving a path of understanding on pz wen i fund this game i was simply immersed and couldnt survive for the life of me . edited a few vids of me dying horribly but then i found you an simple tips and tricks ... AND LOOK AT YOU NOW PZ GOAT. I would love to play in a rp server with ya .it would be awsome
On the topic of Dwarf Fortress, they made another excellent game called WW1 medic. It's an incredibly good game. Once you start to understand the intricacies of the mechanics, you can really appreciate how well made it is.

'Now we dont want any windows to be broken, this house is special to me. I will, however, allow blood to be spilled on the floor.'
probably part of the reason why you're always getting hurt going over fences is because of low nimble and carrying too much.
It also has to do with how fast you're going. Walking up to a fence and pressing E is less likely to result in injury than running up and hurriedly hopping the fence
Watched this while cleaning up my garage for full emersion.
10:30 God damn AA, you do such great work with cultivating such a perfect zen atmosphere in your videos, specifically in these longer form ones where you can really take the time and appreciate small things in the game that have irl parallels - I love it!
cigarettes are fairly commonly found on zombies, so even if you loot everything, you still find allot. Not to mention, even on rarer settings, you will probably end up with far more than you will ever need, until they make a chain smoker trait or something XD
That whole monologue about nostalgia was spot on.
Time to unwind and make a cozy base.
“I’m not just playing as him. I AM him.”
I love your style of commentary!
"Ahh!! Cigarettes! Perfect for smoking" killed me
Its a good day when AA uploads 😌
timers are also useful, you can set a sound distraction to move zombies away from malls or whatever
Sometimes it's more enjoyable to watch this man play instead of playing myself.
Been watching this Amphibian beauty for years now, and watching longplays is.... perplexing. You've played this game for years now, and still you manage to run around with dirty bandages on for DAYS when you have perfectly clean and running water. The health icon is shaking like crazy, and you keep damaging your character with insane overencumbrance. Still.... you survive it all. I love it, but it's also infuriating
P-Zed is like the Sims, but with danger.
I know this is an old video, but I just had to say THANK YOU for mentioning that Getting Things Done book. I think you might have saved my sanity
Haha, don't mention it! :)
Thank you for good content amigo!
Can't believe I watched 1 hour without stopping of a man reorganizing objects
